Investigation Summary
Employee #1 was using the bucket of a 1974 Case 450 crawler loader to spread fill for a driveway.

The loader rolled off the edge of the driveway and rolled over Employee #1. He was killed. The loader did a complete roll and landed back on its tracks. The approximate distance from the edge of the driveway to where the loader landed was 24 ft. The loader did not have ROPS or a seat belt.
